Position boat and applied along the seam[ATTACH]116523[/ATTACH][ATTACH]116524[/ATTACH] Close to 101 degrees and boat was in the sun and to hot to touch with bare hands. The epoxy as I applied it sat on seam and then flowed into the seam. Two spots I used the heat gun but it did not take much and it flowed. Set up time was a lot less than the 45 minutes the instructions implied. Did have a rag soaked in Alcohol to clean up any runs and that worked out well. There is no doubt in my mind that the two seams I applied the 650k to are now completely sealed. I still have half of the first kit epoxy left but used both syringes and mixing containers. With the second kit still unopened I will use the mixing containers and syringes for sealing the transom. The cheap mickey mouse stand I made is coming in very handy. I need to come up with a block that positions transom so epoxy will flow downhill. Have it figured out already just need to cut board. LOVING IT.</p></blockquote><p></p>
